Question

The level temperature of liquid in a thermometer is 28.60 lower than the boiling point of water. What is the thermometer reading? *

Answer 1

71.4 degrees Celsius or 183.4 degrees Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius.

I assume you mean the liquid's temperature is 28.60 degrees Celsius lower than the boiling point of water, so 100 - 28.6 = 71.4.

Therefore the liquid is 71.4 celsius.

If you wanted the temperature in Fahrenheit, the answer is 212 - 28.6 = 183.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
